scribbles VIDEO | Fort Erie Pride 2023

Although Scribbles wasn't able to attend this year's Fort Erie Pride on June 24, we felt like we were there thanks to video footage and photos by Stacy Hayward, Justin Preston, Michael McCready and (watching from the sidelines in the comfort of his wheelchair) Marc Poisson Leboeuf.

 
We thank each of them for allowing Scribbles to blend their pix and video clips into a new Scribbles Video. Hope you like it!

My "Little Nephew" Graduates....HIGH SCHOOL!

It’s hard for me to believe that my nephew Graham has graduated from high school and in October turns 18.

Where did the time go?

I remember when he was a kid and we used to go for drives in “Uncle Ken’s green car” along with my lovable little dog Timmi. 

I remember how excited Graham would get when we had sleepovers at my place and I will never forget his first 3D movie experience. 

We sure did have a lot of fun and I am so grateful for all those treasured memories.

Congratulations Graham, I am very proud of all you have accomplished and I am thrilled you have a game plan for what you want to achieve next.

Love Uncle Ken

Pride Month Wraps Up

HERE'S ALL 7 OF OUR "it's PRIDE month" SCRIBBLES COVER BANNERS FEATURING SOME OF OUR LGBTQ+2S FRIENDS & ALLIES

Although marred by noisy protests, blatant lies and malicious slurs, Pride Month in Niagara & surrounding areas was still a lot of fun, with exciting events running all month long. 

Pride Niagara started the festivities with a Kick Off Party featuring Detox from Rupaul's Drag Race, followed by Pride flag raising ceremonies, the 10th Annual Unity Awards, Pride Prom, Speaking Out with Pride, Pride in the Park and more.

Other events throughout the region were Living Out Stories hosted by Falynn Shaw who interviewed Hexe Noir and Safe Space Niagara's Pride Fest & Sounds Gay, Count Me In (all funds went to Safe Space Niagara). Rounding off the month was the 2nd Annual Fort Erie Pride, with the notable absence of event co-organizer Marc Poisson Leboeuf, still recovering from a serious accident in May. 

Decked out in his festive rainbow hat, Mr. Sock was on hand (get it..."ON HAND"... LOL) for Pride in the Park, where he got to meet many of our Scribbles friends and received shout outs from people he didn't even know, but who sure knew him ("I'm crushing on Mr. Sock" said one happy admirer.)

Throughout the month, Scribbles "cover" banners featured numerous LGBTQ+2S friends and allies. In case you missed any, or just wish to see them again, here's our various collages. 

What a fine group of kind, caring, individuals, all of whom Scribbles is so proud to call our friends. Shine bright my friends, shine bright.

May the joy, love and hope you feel at Pride remain with you throughout the year and comfort you should you find yourself dealing with misguided hatred and intolerance.

scribbles VIDEO | Fun with Suzi & Bill featuring Mr. Sock

We had a great visit with our St. Catharines friends Suzi & Bill. They both enjoy Mr. Sock, but had never met him. I had told Suzi Mr. Sock would join us for our visit, but what she did not know was that I would be bringing almost ever single different Mr. Sock for a show & tell session. It was a lot of fun. Here's a clip of me unpacking the duffle bag filled with Mr. Sock's.

Proud Friendship

Yesterday I went to N.E.T. Campground with my best friend Doug. I have known Doug & his wife Heather since the beginning of time and they have been there for me at various chaotic moments of my life (and there have been some real doozies.)

On route to the campground, Doug had to stop at his place to pick a few things up. I was touched to see a large Pride flag waving in the wind at the front of their home along side a big Canada flag. In the backyard were smaller rainbow & Canadian flags and Heather had more flags for Doug and I to put out at the trailer.

 
Seeing that big flag flapping proudly in the wind in front of Doug & Heather’s place was so touching and I want to thank them both for doing that and being such amazing life long friends.

I saw a post the other day with pix of someone’s home with a Pride flag out front. They went on to say that they did that to let those in the LGBTQ+2S community know that their home is a safe and supportive space. They did it to let noisy, misinformed protesters know they very much disagree with them.

 
Thank you to everyone who is an ally to the LGBTQ+2S community. Together let’s build a world where everyone is free to be themselves without harassment or harm.
